Manually Migrating a Logical IP Address

VCS includes the haipswitch command to migrate the logical IP address from one interface to another. Usage:


# haipswitch -s MultiNICB resname
# haipswitch MultiNICB_res_name IPMultiNICB_res_name ip_address netmask from_physical_ip to_physical_ip

In the first form, the command shows the status of the interfaces for the specified MultiNICB resource. In the second form, the command uses the following steps:

  1. Checks that both from and to interfaces are associated with the specified MultiNICB resource and the to interface is working. If not, the command aborts the operation.
  2. Removes the IP address on the from logical interface.
  3. Configures the IP address on the to logical interface.
  4. Erases previous failover information created by MultiNICB for this logical IP address.
